Her response to his 'Gish gallop' was perfection. It's very difficult, but she deliberately didn't try to refute his fire hose of nonsense. She shifted the subject at opportune moments to damaging attacks. For example, with the J6 answer, she didn't refute his ridiculous account. She switched to Chattanooga 'Fine people on both sides', which she knows he hates, and became passionate about this horror. And he took the bait over and over again.

It was a thing of awesomeness to watch.

You have to think that at some point she thought to herself that it was just too easy to execute the plan. She and her team had to have thought he'd resist a bit.
